Hello, This line has not been proven, except for the last few generations
after Samuel. There is a George W. Allen b. 1814. Are we related? We have
no direct descendants. (My program is acting up!?)

2. Thomas ? or John? Allen

Notes for Thomas ? or John? Allen:

The Elizabeth & Anne was being used in the slave trade at the time of the
1715 Jacobite rebellion. It's merchant owners thought they might be more
highly rewarded by handling the "transport" of prisoners for the King. The
arrangement was to take the prisoners on consignment and receive payment
when a receipt for their delivery was presented to His Majesty's Court in
London.

Virginia, after having been carried to London for trial.

Formatter's notes:

The Captain's sworn statement originally appeared following the list of

prisoners.

This document is typed as written. Words were spelled as they appear

here. The letter 's' is sometimes written as 'f', as was common

in colonial times. I replaced the 'f', or 'long s' with the letter 's' in

surnames.

________________

Additional information was published about these prisoners in the "Calendar
of

Virginia State Papers" and in "Scottish Notes and Queries"

_______________

Alexander Kerr - William R. Williams, the contributor of this list is a

possible descendant of Alexander Kerr. The following is a letter which sets

forth information regarding his research.

I have been trying for several years to confirm some commonly accepted

information regarding Alexander Kerr, Jacobite prisoner captured at Preston

in 1715; convicted at Chester of high treason; accepted "transport" rather

than hanging until not dead etc.; was taken onboard the ship Elizabeth and
Anne,

Master, Edward Trafford at Liverpool and was signed for "By his Majestys's

Lieutenant Governor & Commander in Chief of this Dominion" at York,
Virginia,

January 14, 1716. Alexander was the son of Archibald Kerr of Graden.

Alexander was trained as a silversmith before his capture and became a nabob

of Williamsburg owning a house across the street from the Capital building.

Alexander bought the house from the estate of a fellow prisoner transported

on the same voyage of the Elizabeth and Anne, Dr. John Brown, a surgeon from

Coldstream.

Alexander and his brother Henry were sons of Archibald Ker(r) of Graden and

Helenor St. Clair, daughter of Sir James St. Clair of Roslin. The boys'

father died when they were still young children. Their mother raised them

as Roman Catholics. Henry, the eldest, may or may not have participated in

the 1715 Jacobite Rebellion. However, Henry was not captured as a Jacobite

until the 1745 Jacobite Rebellion near Forfar, Scotland. Henry pleaded he

was taken as an officer of the Spanish Army, which he was and had been for

23 years. Henry was sentenced to "transport" and died a Lieutenant-Colonel

in the Spanish Army at San Lucar, Spain on 22 December 1751.

It is alleged by several genealogists in the U. S. and Scotland that
Alexander

Kerr of Williamsburg, Virginia married Martha Elizabeth Rice, date and place

unknown. The marriage produced three children, Alexander Kerr, m. Elizabeth

Rice; John Kerr, m. Elizabeth Henderson and William Kerr. I know John Kerr

to be my ancestor and that his wife's name was Elizabeth Henderson and so
on.

I cannot confirm Alexander Kerr as the father of my John Kerr.

The Colonial Williamsburg Foundation has spent considerable time and money

researching the lives of the owners of houses in colonial Williamsburg.

Alexander Kerr is one of the persons they have researched. It is the opinion

of the Colonial Williamsburg Research Library that Alexander Kerr never

married and had no children. I am unable to dispute their conclusion.

Correspondence 4/29/00:


If you are researching any of the Jacobite rebels, please note this

valuable research information submitted by Mr. Williams, the contributor

of this list:

The following is extracted from my files re the trial of the 1715

Jacobite rebels:

The record of the trial for the rebels captured at Preston is at the

Public Record Office, Kew, London. The lists and indictments of the

rebels of 1715 is identified as KB8/66. It is described as "Special

oyer and terminer rolls and files, including informations and

depositions", and is filed in two boxes. The box labelled "Part 1"

contains seven folders or bound manuscripts, of which the folios

have been numbered in a single series, ff. 1-132. The other is a

very long box because some of the documents are three or four feet

long. It contains Part 2 (ff. 133-201) and Part 3 (ff. 202-254).

Each folder bears the heading: "A list of ye Rebell Prisoners at

[place], showing their Christian Names and surnames the Parish and

county they dwelled In." {You may recall my alleged ancestor was

captured at Preston so the Preston folder was of most interest to

me. Too bad, my alleged ancestor was not in it. However, the

Chester folder, where the trial was held, had four surnamed Kerr

including my alleged ancestor.} {The prisoners were clearly tried

in groups except for the most prominent persons such as the Earl of

Derwentwater.} {These records are all written in Latin.}

I found a book published in 1895 by George Routledge and Sons,

Limited titled "Preston Fight or The Insurrection of 1715" to be

both informative and pleasant to read. Reviewers say this book is

historically correct. I got a copy via interlibrary loan.

Jacksonville University Library provided the copy I read.

Correspondence 10/20/01 passenger Noble

I believe I am a descendant of William Noble. My Noble ancesters settled

in Anson Co. and Montgomery Co., North Carolina.

Correspondence 1/24/02 passenger Arnot

I would like to find out more about a ship from Liverpool to Va? named

Elizabeth and Anne in 1716. David Arnett was bannished to Va from the

Jacobite Rebellion, 1716 He was born 1680. His father was? Robert

Arnott of Angus(Kirkcaldy).

My email is Barb Howard

Correspondence 09/22/02 passenger Wood

I am Probably a descendent of James Wood who was exiled to Va. My Wood

ancestors began in Va, Moved to S.C. and on to Texas/ Dewitt Colony. I

can use any information anyone has on the James Wood that was on the

Elizabeth & Anne. Max Wood

Correspondence 04/23/2003 passenger Bruce

My ancestor, Alexander Bruce, arrived in Yorktown, VA, aboard the

"Elizabeth and Anne", (Edward Trafford, Master) on 29 June, 1716, from

Liverpool. He was taken prisoner by the English at Preston during the

Jacobite rebellion of 1715.

Alexander's family ended up in Amelia County,VA, the area of which

became Nottoway County in 1789. The first mention of him is in Amelia

County in 1737. Probably this Alexander Bruce was a son of the original.

I would like any information about the original Alexander as to where

he lived in Scotland, what he did, etc. Bill Bruce

Correspondence 09/17/2003 passenger Prophet

Ancestor - Silvester Prophet arrived in Yorktown, VA 14 Jan 1716 on the

ship Elizabeth & Ann. I'm his 5th G-Grand daughter. He settled in

Goochland County, VA. Sylvester & wife Alice ? Pleasant(s) ? had 7

children: Lucy, Rev. John (my direct line), David, William, James,

Anne and Elizabeth. All the children were born and reared on the 300

acre Messuage Plantation that ran North of the St. James River. If

anyone knows anything about Owen Davidson on the same ship I would

love that information also. Fran Grindstaff

Correspondence 03/29/2004 passenger Burns

My ancestor John Burns was on this ship. His son, Laird Burns was born

in 1716 in Cumberland, and Laird's daughter Martha Burns married James

Boyd (of Scots-Irish descent), who is the gggg Grandfather of my

father's mother. James and his son John died in a Tory prison camp &

his son Samuel received a musket ball through the eye during a battle

of the Rev. War. He later married Isabella Higgins and they had 10

kids; they moved to Indiana.

Family history and information from the internet says that Martha

Burns was a "close relative of Robert Burns" but I have not yet found

any connection. If anyone is researching this John Burns please contact

Jean Birch, Denver, Colorado

Correspondence 06/22/2004 passenger Marjoribanks

Geo. Marjoribanks listed as a non-indentured [Jacobite] is our

immigrant ancestor. The website for Majoribanks/Marchbanks information

on this person can be found at:

http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Acres/4730/george/george.html


Unknow connection maybe

Thomas ? AllenTo paraphrase information from that site, George was born in
Scotland

and captured in a Jacobite uprising, imprisoned and then deported to

the colonies.

In the colonies he met and married Ann Eckols, daughter of John and

Mary [Cave] Eckols. From this union there were eight children born

but only seven were named in George's will, The will of George

Marchbanks can be found in Will book No. 1, 1734-1761, page 11-12.

It was proved 21 Nov. 1740, page 12a.in the Parish of Raleigh in

Amelia County, Virginia. He left to his younger son Joseph: plantation

and two hundred and seventy five acres of land, to son George two

hundred seventy five acres of land next to Joseph, to son William two

hundred seventy five acres of land next to George, to daughter

Lucy Prisher one hundred acres of land, to daughter Ursula one hundred

acres of land and to daughter Sarah one hundred acres of land. Ann,

his beloved wife, and William Echols and Richard Echols were executors.

Witnessed by Hiz Ford, William Clemond, Jos. Collins Numerous court

records for George Marchbanks can be found in Goochland County,

Virginia between 1729 and 1737. By 1740 the records switch to Amelia

County, Virginia. Alice Sanders
